so i bought the low profile gas block from PRI to go under my rail system, got everything off ok and when i go to put the gas tube in the gas block and put the roll pin back inside it won't fit! when i bought the pri gas block it didn't come with a roll pin so at first i was like "hmm ok, maybe it's all built to spec and the roll pin that i currently have will fix" is that a true statement or do they all vary?

any suggestions on how i can get this bugger in there?

Did you try sqeezing one end of the roll pin with pliers to get it started in the hole?

I bet you can find something suitable at a hardware store is someone could tell you what size roll pin that typically is.

Yup, squeeze one end a bi to get it started and then tap it in.
